Rhayader and District Male Voice Choir are set to perform their first public concert at the Albert Hall in Llandrindod Wells, following the recent lifting of Covid restrictions.

The choir will light up the Victorian stage on Saturday, March 12.

Founded over 60 years ago, Rhayader and District Male Voice Choir has performed all around the UK, in Europe, Russia and United States of America.

Rhayader Choir has regularly been invited to take part in Festival of Male Voice Choirs at London’s Royal Albert Hall and in 2017 participated in the Last Post ceremony at the Menin Gate, Ypres, Belgium.

Henry Thomas, chairman of the choir, said: “After two years of Covid restrictions choir members were looking forward to being able to perform their first public concert.

“In recent weeks the choir has been able to hold regular practices and I am pleased that a number of new members will be on stage for their first public concert.”

The Spring Concert will also feature local soprano Holly Richards from Llandegley who has performed in many local charity concerts.

The concert is promoted by Llandrindod Twinning Association with tickets priced £10 available by phoning 01597 851427 and on line from www.wegottickets.com.

A limited number of tickets will also be available at the door.
